The angular distributions of disintegration products from the reactions ${\mathrm{O}}^{16}(d, p){\mathrm{O}}^{17}$, ${\mathrm{Be}}^9(d, p){\mathrm{Be}}^{10}$, and ${\mathrm{Be}}^9(d, t){\mathrm{Be}}^8$ were examined, with deuteron energies from 0.60 to 1.45 Mev. Pronounced asymmetry is found with respect to 90°. The results are analyzed to determine the relative contributions of stripping and compound nucleus formation.
